The number of cats that you have is; 27 cats

<h3>How to calculate algebra word problems?</h3>

Let the number of cats alice has be x.

Since you have thrice the amount of cats that alice has, then you have 3x cats.

Bob has 7 less cats than you. Thus, bob has; 3x - 7

If they have a total of 56 cats, then;

x + 3x - 7 + 3x = 56

7x - 7 = 56

7x = 56 + 7

7x = 63

x = 63/7

x = 9

Thus, number of cats you have = 3x = 3 * 9 = 27 cats

lubasha [3.4K]
We have to convert the distance of 0.25 kilometers into feet. First, we convert 0.25 kilometers into meters. Since 1 kilometer has 1000 meters, we multiply 0.25 km by 1000 m/km to get 250 m. Next, 1 foot has 0.3048 m, so we divide the 250 meters by 0.3048 m/ft to get the number of feet, which is 820.21 ft.

Assume that thermometer readings are normally distributed with a mean of 0 C and a standard deviation of 1.00 C. A thermometer i
lubasha [3.4K]

The probability of getting a reading between 1.50 and 2.25 is; 0.00546

<h3>How to find the probability from z-score?</h3>

We are given the following information in the question:

Mean; μ = 0 °C

Standard Deviation; σ = 1 °C

We are given that the distribution of thermometer readings is a bell shaped distribution that is a normal distribution.

Formula for z-score is;

z = (x' - μ)/σ

P(Between 1.50 degrees and 2.25 degrees) is expressed as;

P(1.5 ≤ x ≤ 2.25)

= P((1.5 - 0)/1 ≤ z ≤ (2.25 - 0)/1))

= P(z ≤ 2.25) -  P(z < 1.5)

= 0.0546 = 5.46%

The graph that correctly describes this is the first graph

A school allots £2000 to spend on a trip to the theatre. Theatre tickets have a regular cost of £32 each and are on offer for 1
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

£20

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Total amount alloted = 2000

Ticket cost = 32

Discount = 1/4 off

Hence, ticket price = 3/4 * 32 = 24

Train ticket cost = 12

Total cost per person = £(12 + 24) = £36

Hence, alloted amount / cost per person

= £2000 / £36

= 55.55

Total number that can attend = 2 teachers and 53 students

Change = £2000 - (£36*55)

= £20
